Monday Happies

1. Reading. I obviously really love reading. But I’ve been on a real tear lately. In the last week I’ve read five books. That’s with working, working out, cooking, watching tennis, socializing, sleeping, etc. I am a very fast reader but that’s pretty crazy even for me. There is really nothing better than getting lost in a good book.

2. Football. I grew up watching a fair number of NFL games with my father. In fact, for one season he had me and my brother pick teams and recorded our picks in a notebook. We were actually pretty good. For years, beyond the Super Bowl I paid very little attention to football. Then I graduated college, made friends in NYC who are rabid fans of teams from back home and got into watching the NFL with them. And in the past few years I’ve come to really like college football. I love the atmosphere and culture around it, and I love how absolutely passionate the fans are. It kind of reminds me of soccer in Europe. This fall I am loving watching college football Saturday and the NFL on Sunday.

3. iPhones. This is a weird one. I’ve had my iPhone for a while now, but over the summer my mother got in iPhone. And then, this weekend, my dad got one. My parents have never been technologically inclined. For years they’ve both had flip phones that they don’t even leave on. They just carried them with them (maybe) and turned them off if they needed something. But now I can text with my parents, send them pictures, plays games with them and I think that’s pretty great.
